My primary interest in this work is visual experience. The intention is that painting can offer a unique insight into the experience of our visual culture and current relationship between objects, their meanings and our ability to see. This work explores these relationships through media connections of objects and the seemingly disparate, and unclear qualities these connections create. Our visual experience is cluttered and flattened by these connections. Where one object or meaning begins is unclear, our relationship to visual experience has an impact that at once loses the object and creates a new one. The simulation of images camouflages visual understanding.
